Man Utd vs Liverpool Live Changes With Ryan Babel

As previous seasons of Man Utd vs Liverpool live matches have been largely one sided in their final results, Ryan Babel changed all this in season 2008/09 of the English Premier League with his fantastic goal that turned the tide in Liverpool's favour for once. The result came in a rare season of joy and success for the Anfield club after years of trophy drought (although ironically they still ended up with nothing to show for one of their best seasons in recent memory). On top of all that pain they had to endure in a thinning trophy cabinet, they were also consistently beaten by Man Utd who almost made it look too easy at times. But at Anfield in 2008 it was very different as Babel scored the game changing goal in the Man Utd vs Liverpool live encounter.

The win was achieved in a fashion that was becoming the story of Liverpool's season. Trailing 1-0 to an early Manchester United goal, the Reds fought their way back to level the scores. In a typical game that had everything a fan would want from both clubs, there was nervous tension and high excitement as both teams played a surprisingly open game at times. Liverpool were at their attacking best at this point in time, and they ended the season scoring the highest number of goals which they have hardly done in the past under the more defensively minded Rafael Benitez. They were also remembered for their entertaining style and never gave up until the end as they came from the dead several times. Liverpool did it again this time against Man Utd at the fortress of Anfield with Ryan Babel coming on as a substitute to turn the game on its head.

It was hardly dangerous when Mascherano lost the ball on the right and Ryan Giggs looked to shepherd the ball out safely for a goal kick. But the Argentine typified Liverpool's season by chasing a lost cause and somehow managed to get the ball off Giggs back into the penalty area, and a dangerous position from which Dirk Kuyt pounced on the loose ball, charged further into the six yard box before sending a square pass to fellow Dutchman Babel. The much maligned but frustratingly inconsistent Babel then kept his composure as he rifled his shot into the top of the goal. Anfield erupted with joy as their team went 2-1 up and never gave up the lead as they won the first Man Utd vs Liverpool live stream match on their way to a famous double that season.
